10. Ham Bhai Hain

 A/N:
I think yeh teeno bhaiyon ka anthem hai. What do you think? Any better suggestions?

Love,

"Rishi, tumne hamein Papa ke baare mein batana zaroori nahi samjha?"

  "Papa ji ne mujhse wada le liya tha ki main tumhe kuchh nahi bataunga."

  "Phir bhi, ham unki beti hain, hamein poora hak hai janne ka."

  "Main nahi chahta tha ki tum pareshan ho jao. Tumhari pehli badi job lagi hai, tumhe uspe dhyaan dena chahiye. Waise bhi, main hoon na papa ji ka dhyaan rakhne ke liye?"

  "Sab yahi kyun keh rahe hain? Hamari pehli job nahi hai."

  Rishi Bela ka haath pakadta hai. "Lekin pehli badi job to hai na."

  "To kya hua? Papa zyada zaroori hain hamare liye."

  "Main janta hoon tum Papa ji ko lekar pareshan ho, unki bohot chinta karti ho, par Papa ji nahi chahte hain ki tum har wakt pareshan raho."

  "Ab jo hamein pata chal gaya, ham kaise pareshan na ho? Ham dono mein se kisi pe bharosa bhi nahi kar sakte hain ki koi hamein kuchh batayega. Aisi halat mein ham wahan dobara kaise jayenge?"

  "Phir se wahan rukna hai?"

  "Sirf sagai ke liye, uske baad ham wapas aa jayenge. Shaadi ab jaldi ho rahi hai to kaam achanak se badh gaya hai." Hey Ganga Maiyya, hamari madad kariye. Koi raasta dikhaiye hamein. Ham Aarohi ki zindagi barbaad nahi hone de sakte.

  "Tum nishchint hokar jao, main tumhe sab batata rahunga. Kuchh nahi chhupaunga. Chaho to kasam doon?"

  "Nahi, ham kasam- vasam pe bharosa nahi karte hain. Badi kamini cheez hai, sirf doosron ko dukh aur dhokha deti hai."

  "Achha baba, no kasam. Ab chalo, tumhare favourite pani puri khate hain."

  "Pani ke batashe, pani ke batashe khate hain."

  "Jo tum kaho. Ab chalein?" Rishi apna haath Bela ke kandhe pe rakhta hai aur use thele ke taraf le jata hai.

  "Aalok bhaiya, is baar hamein Kavya ke saath kamra dijiyega. Ham phir se Shaivi ke saath nahi reh sakte hain," Bela kehti hai. Charo wedding planners Aalok ke pichhe chal rahe hote hain apne kamre tak jane ke liye.

  "Mujhe bhi is aunty ji ke saath nahi rehna hai, Aalok bhaiya."

  Aalok do darwazon ke beech aake rukta hai aur dono darwazon ko saath mein kholta hai.

  "Yeh mera kamra hai-"

  "Is kamre mein ham rahenge-" Shaivi aur Bela, dono ek hi kamre ko chunte hain. "Ham bade hain, hamein pehle chunne ka mauka milna chahiye."

  "Aapki umar ho gayi, ham jaise nau- jawan ko enjoy karne dijiye, aunty ji."

  "Badi badtameez ho tum. Badon ka lihaz hi nahi hai, lekin aunty bulana nahi chhodti. Ham tumse utne bhi bade nahi hain, bas kuchh 3-4 saal."

  "Badon ke lihaz ki baat aap to mat hi kariye. Maine dekha aapko badon ka kitna lihaz kiya."

  "Tumhari Chachi ji apni bezzati khud karwati hain. Agar wo hamare Papa ya hamare mangetar ke baare mein ant- shant bakengi to ham thodi sunte rahenge."

  "Badi hain, thode purane khayalat ki hain, agar thoda bol diya unhone to kya ho gaya?"

  "Apne kaam se kaam rakhengi to koi locha hoga hi nahi na-"
